Run Champs NYC Marathon Training Feat. Jadakiss Episode 1 | Mesa x Directed by Joe Fucarino

Run Champs by N.O.R.E. is a vibrant fitness-cultural movement founded by Queens-bred hip-hop icon Victor “N.O.R.E.” Santiago. Emerging from his passion for wellness, the initiative combines the energy of hip‑hop with the discipline of running, encouraging community unity, self-discipline, and empowerment through events like the “Juicy on the Beach 5K” in Hollywood Beach and group runs in Weehawken, NJ. N.O.R.E. marked notable milestones this year, completing his first half-marathon at age 46 during the Citizens Queens 10K .

A key figure in the movement is Mesa, known by his handle @Mr100Summers , who frequently joins N.O.R.E. at Run Champs events, helping to foster camaraderie and shared passion across their running crew

This fall, Run Champs is reaching new heights: N.O.R.E. has officially committed to running the full 26.2 miles of the TCS New York City Marathon on November 2, 2025, marking his inaugural appearance at this iconic race

Alongside him, Mesa and the rest of the Run Champs squad will train together through the five boroughs, embodying the movement’s core message: it’s never too late to pursue transformative goals through teamwork, culture, and dedication.
